Of allll the yummy pasta salads that have passed through my kitchen lately (and the list is plentiful), this Asian Pasta Salad ranks toward the top of the list. I had containers packed with a variety of pasta salads in my fridge and this is the one I finished first.

The Italians know what's up when it comes to combining ingredients. Every single Italian recipe I've ever eaten has been a delicious explosion in my mouth. Which is why I need to go to Italy pronto. Ha! This Italian Pasta Salad is no exception and I love that it is hearty, versatile, zesty and totally packed with flavor.

We're on a roll with pasta salads. 'Tis the season! Pasta salads are the perfect dishes to bring to summer (or any-season) gatherings because they are ridiculously easy to prepare and everyone loves them. I love adding unique spins to pasta salads because the standard mayo-laden version gets a little old, am I right?

There is no other season that has better food options than summer. A dozen different types of food come to mind when I think of summer potlucks and gatherings. Macaroni Salad is one of my all-time favorite recipes to make in the summer, but I'm pretty picky about how I make it.

I do not understand when people tell me that they don't love pickles. They make great snacks and they go with so many other foods. My mom used to make me peanut butter and pickle sandwiches growing up and I could never get enough. I could go on and on about pickle favorites, like..

Seafood makes me swoon. All I have to do is think about lobster or scallops or crab meat or shrimp and I begin to salivate. I could eat seafood alllllll day long, no joke. And it's so dang easy to cook! Let me rephrase that. It cooks so quickly!

I remember standing in Subway a few years ago, noticing a new sandwich on the menu. Chicken Bacon Ranch. It blew my mind. What a totally genius combination of flavors! I dove into that sandwich and have been in love with this food trio ever since. It's similar to my obsession with artichokes..

One of my favorite comfort food recipes that my mom makes is her famous pasta sauce. When I was growing up we usually topped spaghetti noodles with it, but it is the perfect sauce for any pasta meal. My mom would sometimes add a handful of veggies to the sauce to give it a unique..

The first time I made this delicious Baked Ziti recipe was what seems like a lifetime ago. I made it for a bunch of my skydiving friends back in those carefree, pre-marriage, pre-kid days. I remember everyone RAVING over it. The pasta, cheese and meat all in the same easy dish had people freaking out..

Last month I visited my mom in Palm Springs (ohhh sunshine! I need you!) and together we made our first batch of Instant Pot Spaghetti. It was DELICIOUS! We devoured the pot in its entirety, but after every morsel was in our bellies we made some tweaks to the recipe to make it even more delicious.

We love a good ol’ batch of boxed mac and cheese in our house, but I’ve been on a quest for years to create a version that far exceeds that easy meal. A few years ago I perfected a slow cooker mac and cheese recipe and I make this version OFTEN, especially on holidays.

Is there any food that is more comforting than Chicken Noodle Soup? There is a reason this is the go-to recipe for sickness and strife. Chicken Noodle Soup comforts and heals on gloomy days and also on regular ol’ any-days. It’s like a warm, cozy blanket wrapped around your brain, mind and body.

I truly did not think this comforting Goulash recipe could get any easier or more delicious, but ohhh how wrong I was! This Instant Pot version of Goulash is AMAZING. It is done in 30 minutes from start to finish, prep included. The pasta cooks absolutely perfectly and when you remove the lid for that first glimpse..

Easy food has been essential and this super easy Chicken Alfredo was a hit when my dad and stepmom were visiting last week. I rely on easy dinners, especially when life hits hard. By EASY DINNER, I’m talking 30 minutes and every morsel of food is made in one pan.

Beef Stroganoff (or “frogasnoff” as my little bro used to call it) was in our dinner rotation when I was a kid and I was always super excited when my stepmom told us it was stroganoff night. It is the best of all the dinner worlds! It is meaty, creamy, comforting, hearty and satisfying.

You know those meals that can be made for nearly every holiday meal, no matter what time of the year it is? This Crock Pot Mac and Cheese is that recipe for me. I make this for Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, 4th of July and so many other occasions that fall in between. Why? Because I can dump everything..

When you think of Hamburger Helper, do you think of childhood? I do. My mom made it often and I still remember the catchy theme song from the commercials: Hamburger Helper...helper hamburger...heeelllp herrr…make a great meal!

One of the most stressful parts of my day is when I realize I don’t have a dinner plan. Isn’t that the worst? I start frantically tossing things around in the fridge like a crazy woman. I couldn’t feel more accomplished than I do when I manage to pull off a last-minute dinner.

Recently I've given priority to refining old recipes from this website. Some of my older recipes, while delicious, need new photos, new words and a refreshed perspective. I originally posted this Spaghetti Bake back in 2012 and it was in need of a makeover!
